What type, brand and gauge strings are you going to use? How high do you want the strings from the fretboard? How much spring tension do you want (how high do you want the bridge to float)? These will need to be determined before you get started. 1. Strings: Any variation will alter the overall action and intonation, so be sure to have to settle on, and consistantly use a particular gauge and brand of string. 2. String Height: If your tremolo pivots on two mounting studs that go into the guitar body, an alien wrench is used to raise or lower the bridge. If your bridge is a vintage style or a bass, there are two alien wrench adjustments on each saddle that will raise and lower each string. Adjust it too high and you lose tone and intonation, too low and the frets will buzz and the pickups will rattle... not too cool huh. 3. Spring Tension: This adjustment is to set how high the tremolo is to float. The best setting, for intonation’s sake is exactly parallel to the body. Heavier strings will need more tension, lighter strings will need less. This will take quite a few retunings and a lot of patience. Need help? Check out our Tech Tips at FACTORY SPECS The following are Charvel's factory string height settings.The specs are measured by the distance between the bottom of the string and the top of the 12th fret. Please note that any problems that may arise from lowering the string height below our factory specifications, will not be covered by the Charvel warranty. TREBLE SIDE BASS SIDE Electric Guitar 1.5mm 1.5mm Charvel guitars come with the following string gauges: 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th 6 String Guitar .009 .011 .016 .024 .032 .042 N/A PICKUP ADJUSTMENT There are a few rules to follow on pickup adjustments; The pickup is adjusted by screws on either side of the pickup housing. Set it too high and string buzzing may occur when playing in the upper register of the neck. Too low and a loss of sustain and output is likely. Another is that humbuckers need to be set level in order for for them to cancel out the hum properly. NECK ADJUSTMENT This adjustment is done first over any others and must be done for proper action, intonation and fretting. This is done with strings tuned to pitch. Fret instrument at 1st fret and at body/neck joint. The space between the top of the 8th fret and bottom of the string should be .020 or whatever you are comfortable with. Neck adjustments should be done in 1/4 turn increments. This is not the proper set up for everyone and your preferences may vary depending on your style. INTONATION Be sure that all of the above adjustments were done prior to setting the intonation. First, make sure the locknut is loosened. The object is to adjust the string length to ensure a true tonal response. This is achieved by ringing the harmonic at the 12th fret and matching it to the fundamental note at the 12th. This should be done with an electronic tuner to get an accurate reading. If the note is s...
